50-613 Kotron Series 82 CE RF Level Transmitter

1.3

Installation Location

Kotron RF Transmitters should be located for easy access

for service, calibration and monitoring. Units should not

be exposed to ambient temperatures below -40° F (-40° C)

or above +160° F (+70° C). Special precaution should be

made to prevent exposure to corrosive atmosphere, exces-

sive vibration, shock or physical damage.

Caution: This unit contains CMOS electronics which may be

damaged by static electricity. Do not touch any

semi-conductor

devices

unless

you

are

properly

grounded.

1.4

Mounting

The Series 82 CE transmitter can be mounted to a tank

using a variety of process connections.

Make sure all mounting connections are properly in place

on the tank before installing the probe. Make sure the

Kotron probe is correct for the intended installation.

It is common practice to use the metal tank wall as the

reference electrode. In such cases, it is required that the

probe housing makes a good electrical connection to the

tank wall. If there is any doubt about this connection or

to the use of PTFE thread tape gaskets, paint, rust, or any

other reason, a separate strap should be installed between

the probe housing and the tank.

Caution: This unit contains CMOS electronics which may be

damaged by static electricity. Do not touch any semi-

conductor devices unless you are properly grounded.

Caution: When a probe is used in an abrasive medium, inspect the

probe periodically for visible surface wear. If damage to

the probe insulation is found, replace the probe.

1.4.1 Metal Walled Tanks

On water-based liquids, there should be no problem with

sensitivity. With non-conductive, low dielectric media,

sensitivity can be enhanced by locating the probe close to

and parallel with the tank wall. If this is not practical, a

ground reference probe may be the solution.
